"Best ad creative platform I've used."
5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

This is an instinctive and easy-to-use platform. I like the background remover, ad set creator, and templates. I don't use any other tools with it, it's enough to use by itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

The CSV upload function isn't as instinctive and easy as I thought it would be. It's possible to set up a lot of different version, but in the end you have to manually customize each one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Customer Support of The Brief

Hi there!

Thank you for taking time to review our platform! We are very glad to see that you enjoy using our Creatopy and that it helped you optimizing your workflow and increasing your productivity!

With the CSV file it's more easier to load your images, texts, etc. into the design, so you don't have to manually replace them for every change. We are constantly working on upgrades and fine tuning, but at the moment the Feed ad builder still requires manual adjusting to place every asset in the desired position.

If you have any questions, you can always contact us on our live chat anytime and let us know!

"Design HTML5 ads like a pro!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

This program is very easy to use, from novices to pros. There are many templates to choose from that are already great looking and ready to customize, or you can build your own using their ad builder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

Sometimes global changes are not necessary. Unfortunately, if you started building out your ads and have this feature enabled, you cannot add a component to only one of the ads. It adds this component to all sizes whether you like it or not. You will have to go back and delete the component from all the other sizes manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of The Brief

Hi there!

Thank you for taking the time to review our platform! I’m happy to hear that Bannersnack has helped you in your business.

You can add an image to one of the sizes from the set if you enter in Individual edit mode on the size, and you can simply drag and drop the image from your computer into the canvas.

If you're facing any difficulties at any point, feel free to contact our support team. They will be more than happy to assist you!

"Super Simple - Fun Results"
4.5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

The most valuable part of this platform is its ease of use. I can generate a quick ad in under 15 minutes, download it in a few seconds, and have it up and running flawlessly in under 1/2 hour. It lets me upload all of my brand credentials (fonts/colors/logos) — time-saving when creating a new ad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

Downside: Using "embed code" for HTML5 (non-ad) designs on my website. Creatopy inserts ad code somewhere; thus, ad-blocking software hides them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of The Brief

Hello Patty!

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us! We are happy to see that our design platform has helped you increase your productivity and optimize your workflow! The ad-blocking software usually verifies the HTML scripts on a web-page and filters them, if the source appears in a filtering list the embed loading will unfortunately get blocked. If you ever have any questions, you can always contact us!

"Saves a lot of time with creative assets"
4.5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

I like the ability to have our team members all in one space where we can collaborate on creative assets. We are able to place our brand assets into the platform so we can easily add logos, text and colours to our pieces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

We had some issues with our brand font not loading properly in the platform after an update. It required us to select a different font and then select our font again each time we made assets. This went on for a few weeks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of The Brief

Hello Eric,

Thank you for your review! We are delighted to see that Creatopy is an amazing help for you, especially since we are aiming to fulfill the user's needs. We are really sorry that you've experienced such a situation but no worries! The support team is always available for you when you're in need and they will be more than happy to help! If there's a bug they will be able to identify it and report it for you.

Thank you for choosing Creatopy,

Have a glowing day!

"Simple and Powerful"
5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

Bannersnack makes it extremely easy to create banner ads and other marketing images. Intuitive editing tools, lots of templates to start with, automatic saving and collaborative editing, makes this tool a must for our agency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

Cropping and resizing an image, instead of changing the canvas, would be very helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of The Brief

Hello John!

We are happy to hear that you enjoy using our app and it’s of great use to you!

As I understand from your message, you are unable to resize or crop an image. That should not happen, as Bannersnack offers the possibility to crop/resize the image as you would like. Maybe you added the image on your background layer. That is the only time when you will not be able to resize it. Other than that, if you add a new layer, and insert the image there, you will be able to edit it properly.

We hope that this info helps! Have a great day!

"Creatopy is the perfect tool for anybody who need to create graphics for its business"
5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

It is simple, fast, perfect even for those who are not graphic designers. The ability to create banners in different formats in the blink of wings simply by changing the resolution and repositioning objects is extraordinary. Available templates are also modern and fascinating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

There are currently no things I didn't like. Sometimes asking to save might be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for Display Ad Beginners"
5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

Love the customizable templates. Just love this way of doing display ads -- opposed to Adobe Animator (ughh!!!). And love the responsive design feature for sets of sizes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

I wish the templates had multiple slides -- opposed to single frame with animations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of The Brief

Hello there!

We are working on adding new templates including multi slides templates. However, If you want to add multiple slides to your design, you can duplicate the first slide from the template and edit it. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any other questions!

"Making my job a lot easier and my work a lot faster"
5/5

I would love a feature to change backgrounds on products in Dynamic Product Ads on Facebook. I know it's out there :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Bannersnack for the Win"
5/5
What do you like best about The Brief?

It's easy to create and copy banners, ads, and other things you make for standardization!

The tools are supported and updated regularly – this makes them a joy to use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Brief?

The new branding – Creatopy – I can never remember this brand name. The old name was clearer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of The Brief

Hello there!

We appreciate your review! We are pleased to hear that you enjoy using Creatopy!

We chose this name because it has, at its root, two essential words that perfectly encapsulate the whole purpose of our graphic design tool:

- Create. The platform is for all kinds of content creators: marketers, designers, advertisers, or any other professional that needs a platform to create professional designs without necessarily having advanced design skills.

- Utopia. We wish for this platform to have the best features that allow people to be productive and creative at their fullest potential and get rid of repetitive and disruptive tasks. This is the place where your creativity can glow, always aspiring for the perfect design.

Hope you have a great day!
